fix(gateway): add missing UTF-8 encoding to file I/O preventing crashes on Windows

On Windows, Python's open() defaults to the system locale encoding
(e.g. cp1254 for Turkish, cp1252 for Western European) instead of
UTF-8. The gateway already uses ensure_ascii=False in json.dumps()
to preserve Unicode characters in chat messages, but the
corresponding open() calls lack encoding="utf-8". This mismatch
causes UnicodeEncodeError / UnicodeDecodeError when users send
non-ASCII messages (Turkish, Japanese, Arabic, emoji, etc.) through
Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp, or Slack on Windows.

The project already fixed this for .env files in hermes_cli/config.py
(line 624) but the gateway module was missed.

Files fixed:
- gateway/session.py: session index + JSONL transcript read/write (5 calls)
- gateway/channel_directory.py: channel directory read/write (3 calls)
- gateway/mirror.py: session index read + transcript append (2 calls)
